The Influence of Cultural Revolutions

Question 10 • Modern World History A-CR

Mrs. Geist is working with her class to find out why some people live longer than others. Which assignment would best exemplify popular thinking after the Scientific Revolution?

Answer
A
Mrs. Geist instructing her class to interview three healthy older people
B
Mrs. Geist requiring her students to read three books on aging and health
C
Mrs. Geist asking her class to research “old wives’ tales” on health
D
Mrs. Geist telling her students to take notes on two research studies

Explanation

The Scientific Revolution encouraged people to explain the natural world through systematic observation and evidence. Taking notes on research studies best reflects that approach because the studies use organized investigation to examine aging and health. Interviewing a few older people or reading books may provide information, but research studies most directly represent scientific inquiry.
